Description
Historic 1856 Flying Eagle Cent
Snow-3, Certified as Proof
1856 1C --Reverse Damage, Improperly Cleaned--NCS. Proof.
Snow-3. Designated as a proof by NCS, although S-3 is usually
associated with business strikes. The razor-sharp strike and mildly
flashy luster suggests a proof manufacture. Recolored at one time,
but since retoned to an attractive light tan-brown with occasional
aqua undertones. The reverse has a pair of tiny digs near the O in
ONE, exaggerated as 'damage' by NCS. Two small circular areas of
minor granularity on the reverse near 5 o'clock.Ex: Pre-Long Beach (Bowers and Merena, 2/2007), lot 16, which realized $14,375.
